So I guess I am either missing something or should just wait for an actual release or two to see what's planned for ro root. In case it is of any use to anyone. I've added this one liner to an existing boot script of mine so I don't need to remember to edit /etc/rc. printf "/X\"shutdown\"\n+1\ni\n\t\/sbin\/mount -uw \/\n.\nw\nq\n" | /bin/ed /etc/rc -- _______________________________________________________________________ 'Write programs that do one thing and do it well.
